It took 32873 tries for YouTuber Val JP to beat a single Mario Maker level, and his journey to the finish line is one of the most inspiring things I've seen all year. You've got to watch it.

At first, the trial seems impossible, and Mario dies countless times. Val JP slowly gets better, yes, but the daunting trial takes a toll on him. You can hear Val JP start to lose it as time goes on. At one point, it even seems like Valp JP might give up entirely. Fortunately, he doesn't.
